pasnownut Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Sauss, I had my son out for the youth hunt up at the cabin last weekend, and I can tell you that only last week did people start seeing birds, as they were MIA prior to it. We had an eventful morning, and had one at abt 55-60yds. Most we spoke to had action or heard them. If the best is beyond, there still is good hunting to be had. The cold of this week should have slowed things up and with the snow, it may have actually prolonged the mating as some nests may have been damaged by the snow, at which the hens will try all over again with another clutch. That might keep the Toms talkin. Good luck this weekend. I'm going up next Wed. for my Cinco de Mayo Turkey bash on the hill. Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they were pretty voicetress a couple weeks ago down here. My friends told me they have clamed up, but like you said, maybe the weather now will help. Good luck to all Saturday. My High School team is in a tourney Saturday, so i won't get out until next week.unless the weather postpones it. Back to weather, lol.......to me, looks like the high here is 40, appears to hang out in the mid to high 30's all day. i mentioned this earlier, but even at MDT we could see some mixing early Saturday morning.

Nut Wife and I saw several Toms in a corn field near Port Matilda puttin' on the Ritz for the ladies. It's still going on here. Weatherwise for central PA, looks like the Euro trended back a bit with precip, the NAM held steady but the 06 GFS moved away from it's 0Z thump.

hckyplayer8 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Yeah I agree that the breeding season has not come and gone. The birds were still flocked up only a month ago. It wasn't until the past couple weeks when they began breaking up (sign of up coming breeding). Haven't seen or heard too many. Will prolly get out scouting tomorrow morning to see if I can pin one.

pasnownut Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Holy crap that video is sick hckyplayer. That sounds like a spot to be on Saturday, unfortunately the turks would be white, not brown....lol. I've worked birds in 40 and drizzle plenty of times. wont bother them. While I always root on snow, I find myself ready to put an end to this bookend winter and get summer going so we can start to look forward the hopefully a real winter next year.

hckyplayer8 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Well its decision time. The place I had scouted out the past month had no gobbling today. Lots of poop, but none fresh. I would say its in the 2-5 day range. Not sure if I should stick to the spot or try an old honey hole that I haven't scouted at all this year.

State college is one of my top 5 favorite places. Had I not enlisted, gotten married, bought a house, I would def be attending main campus, instead of Harrisburg, for my degree.

JamieOber Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Looks like a warm up this week. Yep, it does look like 80+ at least one day this week. But next week looks cooler than normal. BTW, UNV is going to have a negative departure month. Currently at -0.4 and today looks about -4 to -8 or so. Same with PIT, but MDT will have a positive month.

NortheastPAWx Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 KAVP's going to end the month on the negative side as well. MTD departure was exactly 0.0 coming into today and we wound up -5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I planted 56 plants Saturday and spread 4 cubic yards of mulch Sunday (shoveling into wheelbarrow, taking to spit, dumping and spreading), I pretty much want to die. I hope it rains the be t few days. We're going to Texas Wed-Sub and I need to get water on the plants. It'll be 90 in Dallas all weekend, too. Joy!
